most tracks do not have enough room for a full speed opening of the throttle, and on the street it will be far more than enough to be arrested for. in fact the reason that the BMW S1000RR was taken down in hp was due to simply being too much of a beast for most reviewers. they have mostly been saying that the power of the BMW feels more manageable now.

i understand looking at the numbers and thinking this way, but in all reality we as a general public at a non-pro level simply do not need more.
